One-Time Only.

At Billy and Victoria's house, Kyle listens as Vikki tries to convince Billy to take part in an intervention to help Jack. Billy agrees to try. Phyllis arrives and they tell her they need her too. Vikki advises them to say how hurt they are instead of coming down on Jack. They decide to contact someone else for help.

Avery sees Nick's poster for the opening of The Underground at her place and is excited. Nick takes a call from Victor, who demands he come to the Club. Nick tells Avery it's the last time.

At the Abbott mansion, Kyle's friend sells Jack some pills. Jack says it's a one-time only thing. The young man smirks.

At the Club, Victor spots Jack and they spar verbally. Jack tells him he won't be able to count on Adam to get Newman back. Victor says he's doing a good job losing it on his own and comments on what John would think of him being a drug addict. Nick appears and Jack leaves. Nick tells Victor he'll be leading his own life now, not coming whenever he blows his whistle. Victor says he's concerned about the welfare of his grandchildren. Nick suggests he back off Sharon, and complains he likes to see people fail.

Jack arrives at home to find Kyle, Billy, Neil, and Phyllis waiting. Jack tells them if this is an intervention they're wasting their time. He tries to leave. Billy asks why he's running. Phyllis calls Jack out on the lies he's told. Neil and Billy tell him they both got help. Kyle describes how he feels, having already lost Diane. Neil pleads with Jack, "Come to a meeting." Jack hollers that he's done now - he's clean! Neil shares his own dark experiences while drinking - one of his drinking buddies robbed his apartment and attacked Lily. Jack insists he's not like that; he's not sick! Billy says he is. Jack rolls his eyes and attacks Billy, who reminds Jack how he helped him stop gambling. Billy says he needs that strong Jack. Jack orders them out and says they're all fired! Once alone, Jack takes pills and calls Adam to get over to the house.

At the tackhouse, Noah tells Alex the last time he saw Adriana was when he found her with another guy. Alex continues to grill him on whether he's talked to her lately. Sharon arrives. Alex greets 'Mrs. Newman'. Sharon asks who he is, but Noah says he's leaving. After, Sharon grills Noah, who admits Alex is a cop asking questions about a girl he knew in New York. Sharon says Alex probably see what she does - that he still cares about Adriana and would help her. Nick arrives and Sharon tells him she may become the Face of Jabot again. Nick worries it's too much. Sharon thinks she's ready. After, Nick tells Noah he doesn't want Sharon to have a setback.

Victoria runs into Avery in Crimson Lights. Avery says she's having a good time with Nick. Victoria hopes she's not with him just to stick it to Phyllis. Avery says she didn't go looking for this, and talks about how happy Nick makes her. Victoria thinks Avery's falling in love. Nick arrives and Vikki leaves. Nick tells Avery he has a surprise for her on New Year's.

Sharon meets Cane at the Club for her interview - he's filling in for Neil. They discuss her becoming the Face of Jabot again. Sharon assures him that her unsuccessful run at Newman is behind her. Cane says he'll see what he can do. After, Sharon runs into Victor and makes nice, but Victor isn't interested. She tells him she knows about his deal with Adam. Victor says Adam won't be able to protect her from arson charges - he's only interested in protecting himself.

At home, Vikki tells Billy she loves him for what he did, and deep down, Jack does too.

Kyle, Phyllis, and Neil convene at the Club to discuss Jack. Neil says Jack hasn't bottomed out yet.

At the penthouse, Victor's investigator tells him he's been unable to connect Adam to the fires. Victor has a new focus for him for now.

Tyler talks to Lily about Cane.

Katherine tells Tucker if he really wants to kiss and make up, he won't mind if Victor joins them for dinner.

It would be ironic to see SB come to Y&R as a doctor since that is where his character on GH was heading before the car accident. He was going to be a doctor like his father, but the writers gave him a brain injury, he began working with the mob, and his character became a sensation as Jason the handsome hit man.I want to see him return to his medical roots, but I'm sure the writers are going to capitalize on his history on GH as a hit man. I'll be glad to see him again regardless of what character they give him.

I still don't like Neil but I do agree with him saying that Jack hasn't bottomed out yet and it's gonna take that to get through to him although the intervention was a good thing.

Sharon was a good worker before all this mess happened but like all the rest, if (no when) Victor gets his company back,she will be fired like all the rest of Jack's clan.

Yes, Victor should join Kay & Tucker. Wouldn't it be a hoot if Tucker sold his Newman shares to Victor. I'm still wondering if the rumor is true about Tucker leaving by death.

I really do understand how Nick wants to be his own man, but something tells me he will let Avery get him into some big trouble and lose it.

Nikki-shut up Chloe-shut up Chelsea-just leave(with the money) Kevin-stop talking bad to Michael & shut up

Where's Paul, Nina, Murphy, Abby?

Whatever role Steve Burton plays will be alright with me-just bring him on!!!

REDBLOOM normally I would agree with your statement about bringing SB on no matter what role .... BUT, he was a iconic character on GH for SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO long that it is going to be very difficult for folks to take him in another role ..

And let's be truthful here .... NOT ONE of the "crossovers" from the ABC's soaps who came over to Y&R were successful (for a variety of reasons) ....

I believe it is entirely too soon in the new regimes tenure to be bringing on such an iconic person from another soap ... they are just now getting the writing and stuff up to speed ...

But what do I know ....

Because of what Tucker did to Victor by keeping him away while he was sick, I think that's why Kay wants him to join them in dinner. But Kay Tucker & Victor are "business" rivals- you & Tucker are mother & son and you although you may not have wanted to you did give him away and that to me trumps business so you need to forgive your son first and rekindle what's left of a possible relationship before he leaves.

Hi Everyone!

According to Daytime Confidential, Jack hits bottom by waking up in a hotel with a dead hooker in his bed, calls Adam, he tells him to fake a heart attack, Jack agrees to go to rehab and Adam tells eveyone that he is being treated for a heart condition. Now HOW they are going to explain a dead body in the room that the EMS takes Jack out of is beyond me! LOL

I agree with Bruce on this one. Never saw AMC, but I know there was plenty of griping about Debbie Morgan coming over, and transitioning from a surgeon to a former crack-head. The ONLY time it worked was a year ago, when Harmony was leading the children singing at the church Christmas Pageant. What did not work was when she went back to a man-stealing w#ore who slept with Tucker (poor Ashley!) and went after Daddy Neil.

I think Chelsea worked because she was immediately re-written as a sympathetic character, and immediately contrasted last Feb with her Mom, Anita. Sarge seemed OK, not sure why JFP and JG haven't used him more, not sure if he was like his character on AMC.

Now Gen. Kooky, crazy Gen. My wife says that sweet ol Laura Spencer is the opposite of The Weirdo from Down Under. So you know that wasn't going to work.

So my advice to JFP and JG is to make Steve Burton a member of organized crime.

And Brucey, organized crime does work on Y&R. It worked back in 2004-2005 with Bobby Marsino, the former gangster who always wanted to go legit.

Great story-line with Brittany, Raul, Bobby, and Nikki. And LML almost made Bobby, Brad Carlton's brother -- that would have been perfect.
